In June 2024, allegations surfaced publicly via the watchdog blog Wartburg Watch, followed by major news outlets, accusing Morris of sexually abusing a 12-year‑old girl (Cindy Clemishire) between 1982 and 1987. Morris was then in his early 20s and married and had one child

He admitted to what he described as “inappropriate sexual behavior” involving kissing and petting, but denied intercourse. Morris said he repented in 1987, stepped away from ministry for two years, and was counseled by church elders and the victim’s family. He returned to ministry in 1989 after the family reportedly forgave him

The Gateway Church Board of Elders accepted his resignation in mid-June 2024. They stated they had not known the full extent of the abuse before that date, believing it was an extramarital relationship with a “young lady,” not a minor
